"Versões de Junho" oferece uma profunda imersão em um momento marcante da vida de Miguel Afa: seu aniversário de um ano. A cena sugere um afetuoso encontro entre a figura adulta e infantil de Afa, onde a celebração acontece com trocas de afetos e recordações, espécies de "alimentos imateriais", como menciona o artista. O quintal, decorado com bandeirinhas típicas de festas juninas, marca o tempo e a ambiência das pessoas em conjunto. A pintura enseja um diálogo sobre o que realmente nos nutre ao longo da vida - não são as festas recheadas de comidas típicas, mas o carinho, as lembranças, os laços, as emoções e as histórias que moldam nossa identidade coletiva e individual. As figuras reunidas na cena de aniversário são testemunhas de um processo contínuo de autoconstrução e memória.

[“Versões de Junho” offers a deep immersion into a defining moment in Miguel Afa's life: his one-year birthday. The scene suggests an affectionate meeting between the adult and child figures of Afa, where the celebration takes place with exchanges of affection and memories, "immaterial resources", as the artist mentions. The backyard, decorated with typical flags of June festivals, marks the time and ambience of the people together. The painting encourages a dialog about what really nourishes us throughout our lives - it's not the parties filled with typical foods, but the affection, memories, emotions and stories that shape our collective and individual identities. The figures gathered in the birthday scene are witnesses to a continuous process of self-construction and memory.]
